Things to do in Edinburgh

If you need a little inspiration for your trip to Edinburgh, here’s our pick of the best things to see in and do in the city.

There are lots of events happening in venues throughout the city, from comedy shows to live music and performance art, so there’s simply no excuse to miss out.

We recommend: looking out for the free shows in the city’s many pubs, where you can see top comedy, cabaret and more.

Edinburgh CastleStanding proudly above the city since the 12th century, Edinburgh Castle is the capital’s oldest building and its biggest tourist attraction. On your visit you’ll find out all about the city’s heritage as you wander through the Royal Palace to the Great Hall and the Stone of Destiny.

We recommend: taking a picture with Mons Meg, a huge 15th century cannon.

National Museum of ScotlandThe National Museum of Scotland is a free attraction just 12 minutes away from our Edinburgh hotel on foot. There’s a huge range of galleries and exhibits in the museum, from dinosaurs to fashion, technology and world culture, ideal if you’re visiting with or without kids.

We recommend: looking out for Dolly the Sheep, the first cloned animal in the world.

The Royal MileTake a walk through the heart of the Old Town along Royal Mile, Edinburgh’s most famous street, to see historic buildings and some of the best eateries in the city. With impressive architecture and lots of great independent shops, it’s easy to lose yourself for an entire afternoon along the Mile, which connects Edinburgh Castle and the Palace of Holyroodhouse.

We recommend: going shopping in the eclectic Grassmarket, which was used in medieval times for public executions.

Holyrood ParkIf you need a break from the hustle and bustle of the city, Holyrood Park is the perfect place to unwind. For impressive views across the city, make sure you climb up to Arthur’s Seat, which sits on top of an ancient volcano.

We recommend: going bird spotting at the beautiful Duddingston Loch.

The Royal Yacht BritanniaHaving sailed more than one million miles in waters across the world, The Royal Yacht Britannia is now moored in Edinburgh and considered one of Scotland’s top visitor attractions. Your visit includes a free audio guide, and there’s even a children’s version to keep the little ones entertained.

We recommend: enjoying a speciality tea at the Royal Deck Tea Room.

Royal Botanic Garden EdinburghThe beautiful botanic gardens are one mile from the centre of Edinburgh, and can be reached by bus or even bicycle via the traffic-free National Cycle Network Route 75 path. To get the most from your visit, take one of the daily garden tours.

We recommend: visiting the impressive Tropical Palm House, which dates back to 1834.

Camera ObscuraOne of Edinburgh’s most unique attractions is Camera Obscura, a rooftop chamber built during the Victorian Era with panoramic views created by mirrors and lenses. If you’re visiting the city with your children, they’ll be amazed by the optical tricks and illusions.
